ideas that the government did not condone (Haiman). Although censorship began in Ancient Athens‚ it still exist today‚ partially in schools. Students have First Amendment Rights in public schools‚ but those rights are limited. There are many reasons for and against censorship. Advocates for censorship censor text especially school text or books‚ often because school officials are trying to keep students from developing “Subverse values” (Haiman).

The field of school psychology has evolved. Traditionally‚ school psychologists have used a refer-test-and-place model. Students were cognitively and academically tested then placed.

the arguments stated against this neo-liberalization don’t actually make any sense logically‚ misunderstand neo-liberalism or are just straight-up strawmen. What the articles themselves seemingly try to argue is: that the trend of increasing neo-liberalizing of education is not working or is outright damaging.

Critical Essay Science fiction is a really weird genre. It has some odd stories. These are some more oddballs. “A Sound of Thunder” by Ray Bradbury is about hunters that time travel to kill various types of animals‚ dinosaurs being one of them. One of the travelers‚ Eckels‚ stepped off the path that no one could leave and it changed history. The leader killed him with a gun‚ hence the name sound of thunder. “Nethergrave” by Gloria Skurzynski is about a boy named Jeremy who is not liked at his school
